Great places to stop while driving through New York State

1. Ultimate New York State Road Trip A Ruba Visual Travel Guide by Natalie Chang

2. Castle Miniature Golf Located in Orange County, NY, this stop will give your kids a chance to run around and try their hands at rock climbing, mini golf, and roller skating – bonus is that they’ll nap in the car!

3. John Boyd Thatcher State Park Cheap parking, easy trails, convenient picnic tables – this is an all-around great stop when you’re on your way up to Canada

4. Albany Heritage Museum Head here in the early afternoons (on weekends) and the crowds won’t be too bad. Nice size for a reasonable pit stop and gorgeous gardens if it’s a warm day out

5. Lake George Steamboat Lunch or dinner cruises available and the scenery is so beautiful, you may consider cutting your journey short a bit and staying

6. Howe Caverns This is a great place to cool down if you’re out on the road in the heat of summer – kids will love the unique activity and the chance to stretch their legs
